Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2431235A1] The buffer (1) has an elastic core made of rubber, bonded on an inner ring and on a tubular protection shell, where the ring and the shell are made of steel. A fixing unit i.e. fixing plate (3), fixes one of coaxial cylindrical rollers (2) on a rear face of vehicle. An outer face of the shell and an inner face of the ring receive thermal treatment. The shell has ellipsoid shape, and is provided with radial return cavities at each of ends of the shell. The core has a series of cavities for allowing the core to deform. The plate receives an axle (13) on which the roller is engaged. An independent claim is also included for a method for manufacturing a roller for docking buffer.
